I served these with some sweet potato fries with salt and thyme and steamed edamame sprinkled with a little garlic salt for an easy, healthy meal.
Ginger Soy Turkey Burgers
1 pound lean ground turkey (I use 93/7)
2 T sesame oil
1 T rice wine vinegar
2 T soy sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp fresh grated ginger
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 cup panko bread crumbs
4 whole wheat hamburger buns
1-2 cups baby spinach
4 T feta cheese
Preheat grill on medium low heat. In a large bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, and soy sauce. Add garlic, ginger, and black pepper and stir to combine. Remove about 1/3 of the mixture and set aside. Add ground turkey and bread crumbs and lightly mix with your hands until just incorporated, be careful not to over mix. Form into 4 patties and transfer to grill. Cook about 5-6 minutes and flip, grill an additional 5 minutes until cooked through. Grill buns for last minute of cooking time to warm.
To assemble, either top each burger with spinach and feta and drizzle on remaining sauce or combine spinach, feta and dressing in a bowl and toss to coat. Top each burger with "salad" and serve.
These look really yummy. And are those sweet potato fries and edamame? I love the idea of both of those as sides!
ReplyDeleteThank you - they are but I have to admit the sweet potato fries were frozen... sometimes it's just easier that way.
ReplyDeleteLooking around for turkey burgers the other day, I made these. They worked really, really well with grilled pineapple slices on top. The soy and ginger flavors blended perfectly with the tart, sweet pineapple. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThis looks absolutely amazing! Cannot wait to make this next week! Definitely want to try it out at our next Bimbo dinner party.UpdateLand
